Telegram Codex Bridge v0.3.0

Telegram Codex Bridge v0.3.0

Telegram Codex Bridge lets a private Telegram bot act as a second client for a
Codex Desktop task on Windows.

Highlights

• Keep using the normal Codex Desktop interface while Telegram is connected.
• Plain Telegram messages automatically start a turn when idle or steer the
  active turn while Codex is working.
• Use /fresh, /steer, and /queue when you want explicit delivery behavior.
• Send images and files in either direction.
• Move one shared bot between tasks, or configure separate dedicated bots for
  simultaneous task access.
• Run silently at Windows logon with a bundled Node.js LTS runtime.
• Store Telegram bot tokens in the current Windows user's DPAPI-encrypted local
  data instead of source files, command lines, or Git.

Install

Download TelegramCodexBridgeSetup.exe, verify it against SHA256SUMS.txt,
and run the installer. Setup guides you through entering a freshly generated
BotFather token in a masked local prompt and pairing your Telegram account.
Fully quit and reopen Codex Desktop once after installation.

Important beta notes

• Windows x64 only.
• The installer is not yet code-signed, so Windows may display an Unknown
  Publisher or SmartScreen warning. Verify the SHA-256 before running it.
• Telegram-triggered Codex turns use Full Access with approval policy never.
  Only pair a private bot and Telegram account you control.
